  Good Morning WP support,

  I just signed up for WP this morning & i’m very excited to get started. I would like to upgrade to WP Pro and upload a template i’ve purchase to start my professional video productions company webite/blog.
  Unfortunately the WP pro link to purchase the service and upgrade it’s presently working.
  Please advise:-)

  Thanks

  No upgrade will let you upload your own theme – you are limited to the 220++ themes you find from your dashboard – this is a security and reliability issue

  Thank you for responding so quickly, I was under the impression that I could purchase a theme from “Themeforest” and use it to stylize my blog/website?

  Theme forest sells themes for WordPress.ORG installs – you should be able to get a refund – common error

  For more on the difference: http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  You have over 220 themes here to chose from – if you really want to change the look of a theme you can get the CSS upgrade – but most of the themes here have a lot of custom features and such built into them
